ABSTRACT

Home is the destiny of the heart’s yearning, and native land is where one’s roots lie. A traveller’s nostalgia for home is also a kind of Oedipus complex deeply rooted at the back of Man’s heart. Nostalgia has been a perennial theme in literary compositions. This article will analyse Yu Kwang-chung’s poems based on Gaston Bachelard’s (1883-1963) space poetics, exploring the imaginative powers of Yu’s works through studying the image of space relating to the family home.
